Field campaign data Dry Chaco, July-August 2019

KU Leuven, Belgium Field data collected in July-August 2019 in the central part of the Dry Chaco in Argentina within 27 EASEv2 satellite pixels as described in Vincent et al., (2021): 1) Surface (0-5 cm) soil data, covering 27 large-scale pixels: Dielectric_properties.csv: Dielectric properties measured with TDR, HydraGO, Hanna, YSI proDDS pH.csv: pH measured with YSI proDDS Soil_moisture.csv: Soil moisture measured with HydraGO, ThetaProbe, TDR SoilMoisture_Gravimetric.csv: Soil moisture gravimetrically derived from soil samples Temperature.csv: Temperature measured with HydraGO 2) Surface and deeper soil data across some transects: Transects.csv: Soil moisture, temperature, dielectric constant (real, imaginary part, 0.05 GHz), bulk EC, porewater EC, saturated paste EC, pH, measured with various devices For details, please refer to Vincent, F., Maertens, M., Bechtold, M., Jobaggy, E., Reichle, R., Vanacker, V., Vrugt, J., Wigneron, J.-P., De Lannoy, G.
